Answer:

95 minutes

Explanation:

According to N.A.S.A, the Hubble Space Telescope makes one orbit around Earth every 95 minutes.

"The Hubble Space Telescope is a large telescope in space. It was launched into orbit by space shuttle Discovery on April 24, 1990. Hubble orbits about 547 kilometers (340 miles) above Earth. It is the length of a large school bus and weighs as much as two adult elephants. Hubble travels about 5 miles per second: That is like traveling from the eastern coast of the United States to the western coast in 10 minutes. Hubble is solar-powered.

Hubble takes sharp pictures of objects in the sky such as planets, stars and galaxies. Hubble has made more than one million observations. These include detailed pictures of the birth and death of stars, galaxies billions of light years away, and comet pieces crashing into Jupiter's atmosphere.

Scientists have learned a lot about the universe from these pictures. Many of them are beautiful to look at."

You are camping with two friends, Joe and Karl. Since all three of you like your privacy, you don't pitch your tents close toget
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

35.7 m

Explanation:

Let

\mid A\mid=18.5 m

\mid B\mid=41 m

We have to find the distance between Joe's and Karl'e tent.

A_x=Acos\theta

A_y=Asin\theta

Substitute the values then we get

A_x=18.5cos23^{\circ}=17 m

A_y=18.5sin 23^{\circ}=7.2 m

B_x=41cos37.5^{\circ}=32.5 m

B_y=41sin37.5^{\circ}=-24.96 m

Because vertical component of B lie in IV quadrant and y-inIV quadrant is negative.

By triangle addition of vector

B=A+C

C=B-A

C_x=B_x-A_x=32.5-17=15.5 m

C_y=B_y-A_y=-24.96-7.2=-32.16\approx=-32.2 m

\mid C\mid=\sqrt{C^2_x+C^2_y}

\mid C\mid=\sqrt{(15.5)^2+(-32.2)^2}=35.7 m

Hence, the distance between Joe's and Karl's tent=35.7 m
